Schneider Electric, a worldwide expert in energy management and automation, has unveiled the new Galaxy VS uninterruptible power supply. This product stands out as an efficient, modular, easy-to-install, three-phase Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) in the range of 10-100 kW designed to meet critical power requirements in IT environments, commercial and industrial facilities. With its compact and flexible design, Galaxy VS meets the requirements of edge computing and small data centers where space and access are limited. Delivering 99% efficiency and doubling battery life with optional lithium-ion batteries, the Galaxy VS delivers an industry-unique Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). Christopher Thompson, Vice President of the Three-Phase Products Group at Schneider Electric, who evaluated the Galaxy VS; "With its superior TCO and usability performance, Galaxy VS is a technically superior solution that impresses customers. It provides superior Schneider Electric reliability while solving a multitude of modernization challenges. This new UPS strikes the right balance for customers looking for innovative and easy-to-deploy solutions in a hybrid ecosystem. With its compact and modular design, Galaxy VS can be deployed faster and in a smaller footprint than standard UPS. Thus, it saves time and cost." The innovative and rugged Galaxy VS features EcoStruxure Ready. This allows field managers and technical staff to monitor Galaxy VS system status anytime and anywhere with the help of a smartphone app.
The advantages of the Galaxy VS include:
- Cost savings: When operated in Schneider's patented ECOnversion mode, it achieves up to 99% efficiency and in online (dual-cycle) mode up to 97%.
- Footprint savings: The compact design and full front access for easy and fast connection and service offer a high-density design that is particularly suitable for confined spaces.
- Longer lifetime energy storage: With lithium-ion battery technology, batteries are recharged much faster after an outage, allowing for a longer lifespan than standard battery solutions.
- Higher uptime and easier maintenance: Critical system components are configured as modules with a fault-tolerant design. This provides built-in protection at lower load levels and with shorter repair time.
- EcoStruxure Ready: Global equipment performance and condition visibility with a 24/7 service office simplifies management.
- Green Premium certificationoffers sustainable business performance thanks to its design.
